I would assume that this is implied by "start-end".
I agree with you, and I think the documentation is fine. I was just
pointing out that specifying an invalid start/end element results in an
error and an exit status of 1, but specifying an invalid end-start range
results in silence and an exit status of 0, which I think is a bit unexpected.
I think it's fair to return 1 in the case of an invalid range, and to
document it.
